TRACKLISTING
1. Day Three
2. Day Five
3. Day Seven
Matthew Herbert makes his debut on Ben Freeney’s Foom label with “The Recording"-an EP written, produced and recorded in one week in Berlin in front of (and with the participation of) a live audience.
Opener “Day Three” is one of Matthew Herbert’s most exuberant dancefloor tracks in a while, its rhythms awash with mischief and urgency. “Day Five” is all intricate, shuffling high-end, booming toms, reverb and piano, while the throbs, murmurs and restless percussion of “Day Seven” bring the EP to a close.
Created from start to finish during a week-long residency at the Tischlerei Deutsch Oper, all sounds used were recorded during the course of the residency.’
